A Series for Men Exploring Yoga
More and more men are asking questions about how yoga can add benefit to their lives. Guys, consider yourselves invited: Dude Yoga.
Dude yoga is great for those who:
- Tried a class once and would like to take it further
- Had a wife/girlfriend/friend/co-worker show them a pose to alleviate a symptom – and liked the effect
- Never touched his toes but is tired of a lack of mobility
- Have become an ultra-fit weightlifter or runner who is finally listening to his trainer and integrating movement that elongates the muscle as it builds, preventing injury and increasing overall muscle mass.
- Are working to manage the physical symptoms of chronic stress, anxiety, and/or depression*, such as digestive problems, neck & shoulder tension, decreased energy, poor quality sleep, general restlessness, bouts of anger/rage,
Any reason is a good reason to try yoga.
Dude Yoga is Saturdays at 7:30 AM at Simple Gifts Dance Studio.
5-Week Series $40 | Individual class $10
Ready to give it a try?
- Wear clothing that allows movement. What you wear to the gym is fine.
- Practicing barefoot on a non-slip mat is best. If you don’t have a mat, there are some available to borrow or for purchase at the studio, including extra-long lengths.
- Enter the studio through the double doors on Warpole Street.
- Consider arriving a few minutes early to settle into the room.
*Yoga alone may not be what you need and individuals should talk to health care providers or seek mental health support to access other tools and treatment.
